Adderal XR and Guanfacine
We’ve struggled finding the right medication for our 7yo daughter with combined ADHD. The best single med that has worked is Adderal XR. But this past 3 months it really hasn’t worked. Our Dr suggested adding guanfacine to help. At first it was a miracle. She was less impulsive. Not as LOUD. She

Adderall

Focalin to Strattera.....
Hi Parents, My son who is turning 9/going into 4th grade is currently on Focalin XR 10mg. My doctor brought up that this medicine is very good and something that will be very useful to him later in life such as highschool. She is being proactive and recommending to take a break from stimulants and switching

Quillivant and Adderall side effects
My 7 year old has tried Quillivant
XR
and
Adderall
...he has bouts of crying, gets cold, irritable and does not want to do what he normally would (play outside, be silly) until meds wear off. Has anyone experienced this and changed to a nonstimulant? Any advice is helpful, thank you!

Booster for Vyvanse
I would have to switch to
adderall
xr
plus
adderall
. I don’t want to bc I don’t feel like I’m taking meds on vyvanse. It’s so smooth. I’m afraid to ask about a zenzedi or Dexedrine booster.

Adult ADHD, Adderall or Ritalin?
Hi I’m 67-year-old male diagnosed five years ago ADHD and alcoholic in recovery for 11 years. Has anybody with adult ADHD experienced nothing using Ritalin and switched to try Adderall? I have not experienced any benefit from Ritalin 40 to 60mg during the past 8 months. My psychiatrist wrote me

I need a recommended virtual care doctor or company for Adderall prescription
Hello! I am 22 years old, I am experiencing symptoms of ADHD but a lot of the online telehealth companies do not prescribe controlled substances. Can anybody direct me to virtual care system or a doctor that they are seeing online that can facilitate this and help me get a prescription? Thank you!

What are the symptoms of taking too much adderall? Do you have symptoms when the adderall is wearing off?
Hey guys! I just recently joined this group and I was wondering if any of you find it normal to have dizziness, rapid heart rate, and a headache after taking adderall for the first time in a while? I don’t know if this caused by taking too much or if it’s wearing off. I’m glad to be apart of the group

Taking Adderall
Do we need to take the medication everyday at the same time? On the weekends, I would like to sleep in. Can I take it when I wake up? Thank you!

Newly diagnosed, best help?
Hi, I'm 45 and have just been diagnosed with ADHD. It all started because I really want to change my job/career again, had no idea what I wanted to do, and this time instead of making an impulsive change I decided to examine the reasons for my behavior. I just started taking Adderall and I can sense

Scared
My regular doctor retired so I had to find a new psychiatrist. I ran out of my adderall, in the mean time, and when I went to my appt, they drug tested me. It had been 4 days since I took my last pill. What if they cancel my medication because of no adderall in my system? Can they do that? I have never
